After the two long days of qualifiers, eight teams have managed to climb their way up and secure their spots at the first major of the year, ESL One Katowice 2015. The battle wasn't easy, as all the teams had to go through the double-elimination bracket in order to secure a ticket for the main event.
Coming from Group A are Counter Logic Gaming, LGB eSports, FlipSid3 Tactics and Titan. The North American and the Norwegian teams topped their group, while the newly acquired line-up of FlipSid3 and Titan had to go through the lower bracket in order earn their spots. Group B gave us another four teams, where Cloud9 and VOX EMINOR were dominant by winning the winners bracket and the last two teams had to grab their chance through the lower bracket. KaBuM made their dream come true after a very convincing win against Dignitas for the main event slot, while 3DMAX took down mousesports in the last match of this qualifier.
Here is a full list of the participating teams:
The Legends:
Team EnVyUs | Ninjas in Pyjamas | HellRaisers | Natus Vincere |
Fnatic | Penta Sports | Team Solomid | Virtus.pro |
The Challengers:
Counter Logic Gaming | LGB eSports | Cloud9 | VOX EMINOR |
FlipSid3 Tactics | Titan | Team KaBuM | 3DMAX |
The Legends are teams who qualified directly for this major tournament by finishing in the top eight of the previous one, DreamHack Winter 2014. The Challengers are the teams coming from the offline qualifier.
The main event of ESL One Katowice 2015 is scheduled to start on March 12th and will continue on until March 15th. All the information about this event can be found on our coverage hub here. Stay tuned to GosuGamers as we will bring you all the information about this and other events.
